Title: Hanging posters Post by: Izret101 on January 23, 2005, 09:58:55 AM What is the best way to do this with out damaging them?
I don't want to tack them and i am wary of tape tearing them. I am not going for the framed option as of now as it would be inefficient for me. I use to loop the tape into a circle and put it in a few spots to hold up the poster. I have this heavy duty poster that fell even with 30+ of these looped pieces. Captain suggested the sticky putty. I don't know the name of it but i thinkn it is normally blue. But then my question was doesn't that leave a oily residue behind on the poster?

For now i am going to have to go with the putty, tape, or side pin ideas. Probably end up using some form of rolled tape for the thinner posters and try the putty stuff for the heavey duty one. The thumbtacks would start to bug me because they are ever so visible. Again thanks and any more ideas are welcome Title: Re: Hanging posters Post by: Tynstar on January 23, 2005, 06:42:35 PM Use clear push pins. I just hung up all am figures with then and they don't stick out that much.
